Always use the cool-touch handles when moving the fryer or removing the basket for serving, prioritizing safety.
For initial setup, simply unpack the fryer and place it on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from walls and other appliances. Ensure it is plugged into a standard electrical outlet. No complex assembly is required.
Compatibility: This appliance is designed for use with standard household electrical systems.
Care: Proper care ensures longevity and optimal performance. After each use, allow the fryer to cool completely before cleaning.

Always ensure the fryer is completely dry before storing it. When disposing of used oil, allow it to cool, then pour it into a sealed container and discard according to local regulations. Avoid pouring oil down drains.
